Democrats elect three delegates

On Feb. 11, the Rutland Town Democratic Committee elected Lynn Turcotte, David Turcotte and Louis Cornacchioli to serve during the Massachusetts Democratic Party’s 2012 endorsing convention on June 2 in Springfield. Also serving will be Kenneth Lowe, town committee chairman, and Ashley Coulombe, as ex-officio delegates.

“I’m honored to have been chosen as a delegate,” said Turcotte. “As Democrats, we must organize to talk to our friends and neighbors about standing up for middleclass families and pushing for a stronger and fairer economy.”

The delegates will select candidates to compete for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate.

In addition to the delegates elected at caucus, those who meet the qualifications may apply to be add-on delegates in the following categories: youth, minority and disabled. Applications are available by contacting the Democratic Party at 617-939-0800. Completed applications must be returned to the Democratic State Committee by March 30.
